About

Golf isn't a sport that a beginner can try without any coaching first, and lessons from your best mate or your other half is a recipe for golf clubs at dawn. So this experience at a Marriott Golf Academy is a perfect introduction to the sport. You'll start off with a coffee before heading to the academy or the driving range, where you'll spend the morning working on your basic swing. After a break for lunch, you'll then be taught the short game ('short' refers to the length of the shot, not the length of the game), including chipping and putting. The golf pros will be on hand all day to help you develop your technique and swing, give advice on different types of shot and guide you through the mysteries of club selection. You'll also receive a copy of the specially-produced 'Learn to Play Golf' programme.
